FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from a blend of viscose and polyamide for a smooth, close fit with subtle stretch.

How should I care for this delicate knit dress?

Handle with care away from jewellery and rough surfaces. Hand wash or use a gentle machine cycle with cool water and mild detergent. Lay flat to dry and avoid tumble drying.

Is this dress suitable for formal events?

While primarily designed for elevated daywear, it can be styled for formal events with the addition of appropriate heels, jewelry, and a clutch bag.

Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?

Yes, it can be layered effectively. A fine-knit longline cardigan or a tailored blazer can be worn over the top to transition the look into cooler months.

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

It is ideal for summer garden parties, smart-casual lunches, rooftop events, and other elevated daywear occasions.

Does the flared skirt have multiple layers of eyelet cut-outs?

Yes, the flared midi skirt features layered eyelet cut-outs that add movement and dimension.

What is the fit like?

The dress has a fitted bodice with a defined waistband leading to a gently flared midi skirt. The knit fabric provides a close fit with subtle stretch.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels tight or restrictive

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The knit has stretch, but a size too small will be uncomfortable.

Snags or pulls in the knit fabric

Gently try to work the snag back into place with a needle. Avoid sharp objects. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor.

Loss of shape after washing

Ensure the dress was laid flat to dry. Reshape gently while damp. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment during washing and drying.
